[PATCHv2] kcov: reject open when kernel not instrumented

[Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com>]

If the toolchain does not support -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc, we blat
this option from CFLAGS_KCOV, and build the kernel without
instrumentation, even if CONFIG_KCOV was selected. However, we still
build the rest of the kcov infrastructure, and expose a kcov file under
debugfs. This can be confusing, as the kernel will appear to support
kcov, yet will never manage to sample any trace PC values. While we do
note this fact at build time, this may be missed, and a user may not
have access to build logs.

This patch ensures that CC_HAVE_SANCOV_TRACE_PC is defined when the
toolchain supports -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc, and is not defined
otherwise. When CC_HAVE_SANCOV_TRACE_PC is not defined, the kernel will
return -ENOTSUPP if userspace attempts to open the kcov debugfs file,
indicating that kcov functionality is unavailable.
